COON RAPIDS, Minn. -- With the London Games now in the record books, a Coon Rapids student has his eyes set on the 2024 Summer Olympics.

Cameron Thomsen has set up a Facebook page in hopes of gaining interest in the Twin Cities hosting the 2024 games. He says there was another Internet push that even made it to Congress three years ago for the 2020 Olympics.

Thomsen says hosting the 2024 games would boost the economy for Coon Rapids and the rest of the Twin Cities.

His page currently has more than 50 likes. To check it out, click here.
